Nonapeptide-1
Variations in skin colour are caused by different levels of melanin in the skin. Regular exposure to the sun causes brown spots known as sunspots and their occurrence increases with age. Classic descriptions of these troubles refer to hyperactivity of the melanocytes, which synthesize abnormal amounts of melanin.
Alpha Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone also named Melanotropin (a-MSH) is the natural substance produced by our body that is responsible for several physiological activities like pigmentation.

Efficacy of Nonapeptide-1
Anti-sagging and promotes skin firmness
Such as palmitoyl dipeptide-5, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, hexapeptide-8 or hexapeptide-10.
Anti-carbonylation
Such peptides can protect collagen from being destroyed and cross-linked by active carbonyl substances.
Promote dermal repair
Stimulate fibroblast proliferation and linkage, collagen synthesis and cell migration.
Inhibit the activity of tyrosinase
Peptides such as whitening and freckle-removing can inhibit the activity of tyrosinase.
Promote eyelashes (hair) growth
Such as myristoyl pentapeptide-17 and myristoyl hexapeptide-16, stimulate keratin genes.
Slimming
Reduces subepidermal fat accumulation by inhibiting the expression of PGC-1α.
